Hi, I find that running freshclam fails roughly 9 out of 10 times with errors such as the following:
strat:/var/log# freshclam Checking for a new database - started at Thu Oct 17 09:44:36 2002 Current working dir is /var/lib/clamav/ Connected to clamav.elektrapro.com. Reading md5 sum (viruses.md5): ERROR: Malformed md5 checksum detected. ERROR: Can't get viruses.md5 sum from clamav.elektrapro.com strat:/var/log# freshclam Checking for a new database - started at Thu Oct 17 09:44:46 2002 Current working dir is /var/lib/clamav/ Connected to clamav.elektrapro.com. Reading md5 sum (viruses.md5): OK viruses.db is up to date. Reading md5 sum (viruses2.md5): OK Downloading viruses.db2 . done ERROR: The checksum of viruses.db2 database isn't ok. Please check it yourself or try again. However downloading the files manually with wget works fine and the checksums match. I think there must be a bug in freshclam. cheers, Iain. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
